If all of these check out , then you move to the next part which is re-booting some of the oxytcoinergic and dopaminergic pathways.

-TIANEPTINE / PITOLISANT combo will raise dopamine receptor expression.-Naltrexone, amentoflavone or another opiate antagonist can be used to remove serotonin activity in the hypothalamus, and amplify dopamine and GABAergic activity. In this case expect testosterone to raise as well - and you should then monitor estrogen levels carefully.

YOU ARE MORE AT RISK FOR ESTROGEN CONVERSION IF YOU SMOKE OR ARE OVERWEIGHT.

-You should look into yohimbine combination with horny goat weed icariin 60% extract - and berberine is another great one. -Berberine long-term use is recommended, because it downregulates pde-5's and is especially useful in combination with icariin. -Berberine stops serotonin from vasoconstriction by 5-ht4 receptors-Shilajit can be used to reduce serotonin levels, potentiate dopamine and acetylcholine and detoxify the body simultaneously.-Vitex agnus castus extracts can deplete serotonin similar to tianeptine, and lower prolactin levels as well as modulate opiate/progesterone levels....high doses are not recommended, you only need a moderate dose.

-For short term or on demand fixes, a combination of cialis, yohimbine and an oxytocin injection may be of use. Masteron coupled with these or without the yohimbine but with the ciailis and oxytocin is another option.

-WAY 100,635 would be of use, but more than likely you would also need dual antagonism of multiple other serotonin subtypes..therefore way100,635 plus mianserin or cyproheptadine may be a great stack. -Melatonin at night will antagonize 5-ht2a receptors.

-Raising histamine by means of l-histidine , folate and pitolisant may be of particular use in modulating central serotonergic activity.

-Alpha-1-blockers may improve erectile function but may not help or may worsen delayed ejaculation.

Everyone is different, some get results sooner, some later. There's very little chance you will get full benefit in 1 week.... at two and three weeks , report back. Also make sure you are getting enough protein in your diet!

Remember there are thousands of people like you going through the same thing due to those drugs...it will get better. Not all of them have stood up and spoke yet, but eventually , they will come out of hiding as we make real progress.

Much of what we try is trial and error, because deep down, we may understand a lot about ourselves but fail to pay attention to the real* biological signs of what is going on.

Do you have blood work related to your hormones?Seeing as you feel depressed and such, a normal occurrence, your best best is to not touch anything that has a psychoactive component that works away from dopaminergic activity.

Are you diagnosed with clinical depression, is that the reason you went on SSRI in the first place?

It sounds like a fairly exotic method, but I like that he is taking into consideration regional modulation...it's always important to get to the specific brain regions and peripheral zones where the problem occurs.

Spinal nerves, hypothalamus and endothelial tissue would be most accounted for I presume.

Hello Good Sir, I have just started taking Berberine and Icariin, same brands you recommended, just wanted to make sure - the ones I take should I take them 1 pill at a time 3 times a day or one time all 3 pills?

For Icariin? 3 capsules, one three times per day not all at once. Berberine directions are on the label. Should be one capsule twice a day. Keep us updated, make a thread with your results buddy.

Do you think it matters either way? I am 29 and weigh 160lbs.

1 or 2 capsules per day to start should be good. Most people don't find the need to go beyond that. Icariin should always be 3 capsules per day though, unless one has sensitivity issues or side-effects.
